Fear defeats before e'er the test is set.
Day 7 - Prompt: "Fear" Make me feel it, even if it's funny!


Paraphernalia and preparation
Rigid notation, moon’s rotation
Measured summoned incantation

Images flicker through burning mind
Endless path through maze to find
Monstrous shapes pursue behind

Sweat swells to rim in shining beads
Fear of unknown on itself feeds
Memories mount of past misdeeds

Pitiful and puny display of arms
Surrounded by philters and charms
Stillness pierced by strident alarms

Morning sun dances in eyes
Night whiled away in wild surmise
Is today the assessment surprise?
